ELS (2nd Grading) Flashcards
contains metals and intermetallic elements, semimetals, nonmetals, or natural silver, alloys, and constituents of a few rare meteorites.
Native Element Class
It forms in areas with high evaporation rates and where salty waters slowly evaporate.
Sulphate Class
process by which an organism produces its own kind to ensure that its species lives on
Reproduction
Female and male sex cell
Gametes
NADPH
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide Phosphate
Have round shape and grow underground
bulbs
Plants and animals as agents of mechanical weathering
biological weathering
Different types of cellular respiration
Glycolysis
Citric acid cycle
Oxidative phosphorylation
Color of mineral in powder form
Streak
naturally occurring inorganic solids
Minerals
The minerals that constitutes rocks have different susceptibilities to weathering
Rock Type
he wrote the book micrographia and also a artist, 1st
Robert Hooke
Basic Structural unit of each living things on earth
CELL
The process by which the sperm and egg cells unite, takes place after pollination
Fertilization
How cell carry out functions required for life
Multicellular organisms- specialized cells
Transfer of pollen from the anther to stigma of the same plant
Pollination
Smell of the mineral
Odor
Transfer of heat by mass movement or circulation of a substance
Convections
found in electrical wires, industrial materials, and other things that are needed in construction.
Sulfide Class
Rate of weathering is affected by the presence of joints, folds, faults, bedding planes through which agents of weathering enter a rock mass.
Rock Structure
2 types of crust
Oceanic crust and continental crust
Union of gametes
Syngamy / Fertilization
formed from the deposition of different materials on Earth’s surface.
Sedimentary Rocks
are composed of metal cations (+2 charge) combined with sulfur.
Sulfide class
Food Producers
Chloroplasts
Process by which Earth’s surface is worn away by wind, water, or ice.
Erosion
Mineral break along flat surface or into sheets
Cleavage
Disintegration of rocks, soil and minerals together
Weathering
Middle layer of earth between the crust and core
Mantle
Small Rooms
Cellulae
What are the types of asexual reproduction
Binary fission
Budding
Fragmentation
Regeneration
Inner most layer of the earth
Core
What does ignis mean?
Fire
Organisms that exhibit separate sexes
Dioecious
rocks break down by chemical reaction
Chemical Weathering
Chemical weathering is most active in areas with high temperature
Climate
Granum (Grana) - thylakoids - chlrophyll
Chloroplasts
Wearing away of rocks by constant collision of loose particles
Abrasion
It refers to the measure of the mineral’s resistance to scratching.
Hardness
Proved outer core is liquid and inner core is solid
Innge Lehman
Contains natural salts
Halide Class
are crystallized from magma or molten or partially molten volcanic materials that came from within Earth
Igneous Rocks
What is botany
Study of Plants
Weathering occurs more quickly on a steep slope than on a gentle one
Topography
Is a thick and swollen roots
Tubers
Male reproductive system (Plant)
Stamen
- chemical breakdwon of substance when combined with water
Hydrolysis
derived from natural geologic process
Minerals
Ability of a mineral to attract or repel other minerals
Magnetism
Grows above the ground
Runner or stolon
Measure of the density of a mineral.
